Episode 41
This episode of the Lead With More podcast breaks down the difference between healthy solitude and dangerous isolation. It matters because leaders can mistake being thoughtful and independent for being appropriately supported, when they may actually be drifting without anyone close enough to challenge their thinking. Tom shares a personal example of sitting on a high-stakes decision for days without calling anyone, then shows how a peer, mentor, or coach can interrupt that drift before it costs clarity and judgment.
